70% to pass

The annual survey for endorsement of a Load Line Certificate must be held within _______________.

A the three month period immediately following the certificate's anniversary date
B the three month period immediately preceding the certificate's anniversary date
C three months either way of the certificate's anniversary date
D the three month period centered on the certificate's anniversary date
AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) three months either way of the certificate's anniversary date. The reasoning is that according to the Load Line Convention, the annual survey for endorsement of a Load Line Certificate must be carried out within a three-month window, either before or after the certificate's anniversary date. This allows for some flexibility in scheduling the annual survey while still ensuring it is conducted on a regular basis. The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the three-month window requirement. Option A and B are too restrictive, while option D is too specific and does not account for the full three-month period on either side of the anniversary date.
